In this episode John is joined by Helen Mazalon, a GIS Technician at Alcis.
They discuss many topics surrounding GIS for example: Who Alcis are and what they do, the difficulties students face getting into the entry level job market, the 30 day map challenge, the accuracy of data, and more.
Here are Helen's top 5 suggestions for GIS resources:
- Humanitarian Open Street Map - A really good resource – an overview of what HOTOSM/OSM for data, context, projects to get involved in
- Open Street Map - To edit and contribute to OSM
- ESRI Blog - A good source of case studies
- Humanitarian Data Exchange - Good for open source data
